According to the dual process model, implicit associations have a significant influence on alcohol consumption. Literature has been shown that working memory can moderate the effect of implicit associations on alcohol use and its consequences on hazardous drinkers but conclusions about subjects with other drinking patterns are contradictory.Objective This study aimed to assess the moderating role of working memory on the relationship between implicit associations and alcohol use and its consequences in a sample with a low-risk drinking pattern.Methods Sixty-five young adults aged between 18 and 25 years were included. Participants answered questions about measures of consumption pattern, alcohol-related consequences, implicit alcohol-identity associations and working memory.Results Evidence was found about the moderating role of working memory; in individuals with lower working memory there is a stronger link between alcohol-related implicit associations and alcohol use and its consequences.Conclusions Our findings highlight the crucial role of working memory across different levels of consumption, allowing us to outline efforts that may prevent the evolution to more severe consumption patterns.KEYWORDS: Alcohol consumptionyoung adultsdual-process modelimplicit associationsworking memory Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Additional informationFundingThis work was funded by national funds through FCT - Fundação para a Ciência e a Tecnologia - as part the project CIP - Refª UIDB/PSI/04345/2020.","PeriodicalId":17097,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Substance Use","volume":"28 10","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134954561","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The intervention utilized electronic health records to screen for OUD and implemented warm hand-offs using certified recovery specialists (CRS). The intervention also encouraged physicians to become certified to prescribe buprenorphine.Methods We surveyed individuals using the Center for Substance Use Treatment Government Performance and Results Act (GPRA) survey. 302 individuals were surveyed at baseline on self-reported drug use, quality of life, and health care utilization, and 53 completed a reassessment at three or six-month intervals. Differences in outcomes were assessed using pairwise t-tests at the 95% level of significance.Results Participation in the intervention was associated with a reduction in self-reported drug use and reductions in inpatient care. While we found an increase in quality of life, there were also increases in reports of “any depression.”Conclusion Better screening, warm hand-offs, and buprenorphine prescriptions in the ED can improve outcomes for individuals with OUD. Lessons learned include challenges reassessing individuals with OUD, the importance of supporting ED staff with buprenorphine training and CRS, and the possibility that depressive symptoms may emerge and worsen as individuals with OUD seek treatment.KEYWORDS: Opioid use disorderemergency department opioid screeningcertified recovery specialistspeer serviceswarm hand-off AcknowledgmentsThis study was funded by the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration.

ASSIST-Lite is the short form of the Alcohol, Smoking and Substance Involvement Screening Test (ASSIST 3.0) for rapid screening of substance-use disorder. This study aims to translate and validate the ASSIST-Lite questionnaire into the Malay language.Methods The ASSIST-Lite instrument, consisting of 6 main components with 3–4 items and two extra items was translated via the forward-backward process. Face and content validity was assessed by expert panels from relevant fields. Internal reliability was measured using Kuder-Richardson 20, and test-retest reliability was measured using Cohen’s Kappa.Results The item level of content validity index (I-CVI) is 1.00 for all items. There were 511 respondents, and a majority were Malays. The age range was 13 to 49 years old, with a mean age of 17 (SD = 6.392). Both internal and test-retest reliability showed satisfactory results with alpha value between 0.772 to 0.882 and Kappa value between 0.8 to 1, respectively.Conclusions The Malay version of ASSIST-Lite is reliable to screen substance use and its severity risk. However, further studies are required to evaluate its sensitivity and effectiveness in the clinical setting.KEYWORDS: Substance usetranslationpsychometricscreeningaddiction AcknowledgmentsWe would like to thank the Ministry of Higher Education Malaysia for funding this study under the grant LRGS/1/2019/UKM/02/2/3, as well as Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia Medical Centre and the Ministry of Education Malaysia for the support in conducting this study.Author contributionSW: Conceptualization, Resources, Writing – review & Editing, Supervision, Funding Acquisition.

The data was performed with descriptive statistics and moderated mediation analysis using ordinary least squares path analysis to investigate all research problems.Results The study path model showed a good fit and supported the hypothesis that generalized anxiety disorder has a detrimental effect on alcohol use disorder and a negative effect on emotional intelligence. Emotional intelligence was proven to be a mediator, and coping strategies moderated the relationship between generalized anxiety disorder and alcohol use disorder.Conclusions Emotional intelligence and coping strategies are critical constructs to help control African asylum seekers’ anxiety disorders and desire for alcohol consumption.KEYWORDS: Generalized anxiety disorderalcohol use disorderemotional intelligencecoping strategyAfrican asylum seekers Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Data availability statementThe raw data required to reproduce the above findings cannot be shared at this moment due technical reasons and it forms part of an ongoing study.Additional informationFundingThe author(s) reported there is no funding associated with the work featured in this article.","PeriodicalId":17097,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Substance Use","volume":"2017 28","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135635995","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

With the recent increase in HIV cases among injection drug users, there is a growing need to study the psychosocial aspects of the disease to address and mitigate the factors associated with stigma. HIV stigma has been identified as a contributor to depression and a barrier to effective treatment.Aim This study examines the moderating role of perceived social support from three sources, i.e., family, friends, and significant others, in reducing the impact of HIV stigma on depression among individuals living with HIV in Pakistan.Methodology 150 male HIV patients were approached whose likely mode of infection was through injection drug usage. The study explored the moderating role of three sources of perceived social support. Semi-structured interviews and standardized measurements were employed to assess levels of stigma, depression, and perceived social support.Results The findings indicated that family support emerged as the most effective moderating factor in the relationship between HIV/AIDS stigma and depression. Support from significant others was observed as the second one. However, the study did not find substantial moderating effects from friends’ support on the relationship between stigma and depression.Conclusion In Pakistan, where a collectivist societal structure prevails, interventions to reduce HIV/AIDS stigma should focus on strengthening the family support system for patients. The study’s outcomes underscore the importance of tailored interventions that consider the cultural context to mitigate the adverse impact of HIV stigma on mental health of people living with HIV.KEYWORDS: HIV/AIDS stigma in Pakistanperceived social support in Pakistanstigma in a collectivist societydepressionsubstance use disorder Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Additional informationFundingThe author(s) reported there is no funding associated with the work featured in this article.","PeriodicalId":17097,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Substance Use","volume":"40 17","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135819472","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
